MaryWolf - I mean no disrespect, but your comment - "The older daughters step in to help during this trying time and the younger ones are not doing without." I am sorry, but it is NOT one child's place to raise another child/children. I understand what you're saying, everyone comes together in a time of need and that's honorable - but the fact remains - children should not raise children. It's the parents' responsibility to raise their children - no matter how many they have - and if they can't do it themselves, they need to stop having babies!

I think they're nuts! This next one could end Michelle's life! I think they should be focusing on Josie and the other 18 at home.
At 43,her odds of having a Downs child and a host of other genetic related disorders in a child is a real possibility.

Have as many kids as you want and can support, as long as you are not endangering the life of the unborn child and or the mother. Considering the problem she had with her last pregnancy... she should quit.

Hmmm I think or wonder why is this news? They are using their family to make money. If they did it w/o the t.v. there then it may be just fine. I just think that she must be drugged. I mean seriously has she ever scolded a child? Are all those kids perfectly happy all the time. Let's show a cranky day at their house.. Then I will say okay they are normal.

Honestly, I think they shoudl stop having more children and concentrate on raising the children they already have. I would hate for her to go through problems with another baby again, like she did her last pregnancy, and leave the other 19 children without a mother. To me, and this is just MY opinion, they seem very selfish to put the possibility of having another child ahead of the children they already have.
